Is Hugh Jackman Teasing Wolverine's Classic Costume In LOGAN?
First spotted in The Wolverine and then teased in a comic book seen in the Logan trailer, could Hugh Jackman be teasing the hero's classic costume for the latter? Hit the jump for further details.
Don't get too excited, but could Hugh Jackman be teasing Wolverine's classic costume in Logan? That's the theory currently doing the rounds after the actor shared the following image via his Twitter account earlier today. As you'll no doubt recall, James Mangold showed off the hero's classic duds in a deleted scene from The Wolverine while an updated version was teased in the final trailer for Logan.
One theory which has been doing the rounds is that we'll see a flashback of Wolverine wearing his comic book costume or that the aging mutant will need to don it in order to make up for his failing healing factor. We'll just have to wait and see, but this image from Jackman is definitely interesting. It's likely he's just teasing fans, but it's hard not to wonder if "the original" might not show up in Logan.
Logan stars Hugh Jackman, Dafne Keen, Boyd Holbrook, Richard E. Grant, Stephen Merchant, and Patrick Stewart. It's currently set to be released on March 3rd, 2017, so stick to CBM for updates.
